Yyrnwy Hotel and Lake

Yyrnwy Hotel and Lake

A view of the Hotel and Llyn Efyrnwy, the well-known tower in the background. This appears be the original negative that produced the image copied in JPJ019. Interestingly the original title written on this negative reads "27. Vyrnwy Hotel and Lake pub. by E.C. Burns" implying this is one in a series of postcards. In addition an adhesive label on the negative reads "Welshpool 2868"

E. C. Burns.

A view of the main street running through Penybontfawr, the Railway Inn on the right, the Goat Inn and a hardware store farther down. A policeman (constable 15) is standing in the street as is a boy scout. The scout movement did not take off until 1908, an aid in dating this image.

  • [1899-1913].

Glass negatives, the majority of views in and around Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant during the first decade of the twentieth century. The original numbering system (1, 2, 2a, 3 etc.) has been retained with the prefix JPJ added. Many were used to produce collotype postcards, information relating to the production of which are noted on the original storage envelopes. Some of these also credit the photographer as being E.C Burns, who is listed in the 1911 census as a shopkeeper and photographer. The inscriptions on the envelopes seem to act as a template for the wording on the postcards, consequently it is likely that E.C. Burns was responsible for all the photographs.
